Motuc obsessed

There are probably alot of you just like me but how many are there? I remember seeing the figures quite awhile ago & said no I am not collecting these & then a year later I purchased a few & then a few more & so on, it has gotten crazy LOL. This is why I said NO I am not collecting these to begin with, same thing happened when the 200x figures came out, I hunted those things down like no tommorow LOL. I am not sure what it is about MOTU, maybe it brings us back to the days when things were simple & life was easy or maybe it gives us a reason to be a big kid, cause deep down there is a kid in all of us & MOTU brings back so many memories. The good thing is we can say to our loved ones with these figures is, LOOK IT SAYS FOR ADULT COLLECTORS... there not for kids haha. I don't know about you but this line of figures have become very addictive, so to all my fellow ORG members out there, HELLO, MY NAME IS BOB & I AM A MOTUC ADDICT LOL.

Just because I collect MOTU since the beginning, think MOTU, dream of MOTU and always happy around MOTU 24/7! And would probably will die for MOTU. THAT my friend, DOES NOT make me obsessed!

Just because I strongly believe that the MOTU/POP Universe do really exists somewhere and one day, I will join them in thier adventures or join Skeletor's ranks, whichever comes first.

Just because whenever I take a walk, I always imagine a portal will appear out of nowhere and take me to either Eternia or Etheria and live there forever and leave this pathetic humbug of a planet behind, THAT my friend does not make me obsessed!

It's your place for Freedom of Speach for everything MOTU, POP, TMNT, , Horror, Wrestling, DC and Batman, and all other properties that are cool.

Yes, we're all addicted. The only way to stop is if you say CUTOM five times in the dark while staring at a mirror. I don't know anyone brave enough to do it though.

I did see Bloody Mary for a second but she fadded away.

I'm in the same boat. When I heard about the Master's line, I was only in it for Hordak and Faker. In about a year's time, I've become so fanatical about the line I've picked up every figure or reissue I missed, and have mapped out space in my collection cases for all the figures I anticipate getting for the line.

I'm in this line to the end. MOTU had a big piece of my childhood and I actually spent a bit later on buying the old line. I got into the 200x line and I remember hunting every store and stalking walmarts at 2AM.

I feel in love with Classics when the 4H teased us with the He-man prototype at SDCC a few years back. Since then, I haven't missed out in a single figure or item. I've been an addict since the beginning, so I doubt I'll ever let go of this line.

i'm horribly obsessed w/ motu, i get all the figures in triplicate - i have 3 subs, and sometimes even more (I customize alot!) any spares i do have go in the closet just in case i need fodder or can trade for what i need. i will buy every figure, beast, vehicle, anything mattel makes that motu related. i have all the dvd sets including the recent complete series 200x sets.

i have a room dedicated to my toy collection and looking to expand w/ more cabinets & shelves.

I'm not addicted. I can quit anytime I want to. I just need one more fix. You know...for the road. Then I'll go cold turkey. I promise. I'll be as right as rain in the morning. You'll see. You don't know me! Mind your own business! GET OFF MY BACK!!! Sorry. Sorry about that. I just been a little edgy since I quit. Can I have a couple bucks? You know...for something to eat. Yeah...it's for food. I'm good for it. Well, I didn't want your stinkin' charity anyways! I don't need you! I DON'T NEED ANYBODY!!! Man, why is my skin so itchy all of sudden?! I can't stop scratching myself...

Get some pics posted, since that sounds awesome!! I'd love to have a "hobby room" as well where I could build a nice battle ground scenario with my MOTU figs, kinda like those Warhammer players do. I've never done a custom figure but I like watching customs made by artists like yourself!

My brother and I collected the vintage stuff way back when. It was great. It was the one thing we actually did together. Well, he quickly grew up and let me have his figures. I continued on but quickly went to GI Joe and TF. I think my last vintage figure was Rio Blast or Rokkon. (never did get the Sorceress damn it) I had seen every episode of He-Man and She-Ra! Good times.

When 200x hit at the beginning I picked up a He-Man figure and watched the first episode. It was great but then I moved out of my mom's and cable wasn't an option and money was tight.

I first heard about the Classics line when Hordak came out. I saw him and just looked at him in awe on the site. What an amazing figure! The Horde was my favorite villains. But I saw the $20 price tag. I moved on. It wasn't until I bought the 200x complete series and watched it that I was hooked all over again. WOW! It was everything the vintage cartoon wasn't and better! This is how I wanted it to be! It was more mature and had character development. Wonderful!

So I went back and started nabbing all the 200x figures I could. Pricey on some but well worth it. Then I said "Why not get those freakin' fantastic Classic figures?" They were superior to 200x and held true to the vintage line while looking light years better. The first figure I picked up was He-Ro online.

I like to think I have a life, I am in a band, I have a successful career as an artist and I have a hot girlfriend. None of this compares to my overwhelming need for every damn thing that I can find related to bloody MOTUC and MOTU in general. I will sit and stare at ebay auctions trying to decide whether $300 for a MOC figure is fair, knowing full well i don't need it, or obsessively checking post office tracking numbers for my latest MOTUC purchase. I take great relish in adding a figure to my toy cupboard, either on the "house of randor and extended family" shelf, the Masters shelf or the evil warriors shelf. I'll change my mind over whether Battle cat and He man should have a shelf to themselves or whether Grayskull is a more important part of the mythology. I'll stare longingly at my Mint on card vintage figures and wax lyrical about how awesome and useful zoloworld cases are. I'll sit cross legged and look up at those shiny cardboard and plastic bundles of joy with a sense of utter calm and tranquility.
